I am following this steps in the ReadMe.txt in
   http://www.postgis.us/downloads/tiger_geocoder_2009.zip
The ReadMe does not mention running tiger_loader.sql or
create_geocode.sql which I assume needs to take place.

When running tiger_loader.sql I get error:
ERROR:  relation "state_lookup" does not exist
LINE 189: FROM state_lookup) As s CROSS JOIN loader_platform As platfo...

When running create_geocode.sql I get error:
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "\"
LINE 21: \i utility/utmzone.sql
